Re: Glitch-free texlive-collection-basic.sh and other uses of setup v.2.510.2.2


Unfortunately, despite a clear chain of
.. requires: -> requires: -> requires: ..
in setup.ini, I found after using v.2.510.2.2
for a brand new install, one missing dependency.

As follows:


Attempting to run pdftex I am getting:
/usr/bin/pdftex.exe: error while loading shared libraries:
?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

~> cygcheck /bin/pdftex.exe
... cygcheck: track_down: could not find cygsasl2-2.dll
So I installed cyrus-sasl. Thereafter, perfect.
Should I have known about this requirement (or maybe just libsasl2)?
Can it be included, as a requirement, somewhere appropriate?

It already is a requirement.  In setup.ini
texlive ==> libpoppler19 ==> libcurl4 ==> libopenldap2_3_0 ==> libsasl2.
So setup.exe should have offered to install it.

Unfortunately (no idea why or how) the otherwise flawlessly beautiful setup v.2.510.2.2 as an instrument
of Cygwin installation and maintenance didn't pick this up.
